Should I get a Windows 8 PC or Mac?

Should I get a Windows 8 PC or a Mac OS X (I like both OS). I will be using Skype, Office, Games and web browsing. I currently had an iPad and iPhone and I don't care about sync. I will also do lots of Photo and Video editing.

If you're not similar when it comes to using computer then go with Mac because it is more secure from hackers and viruses than PC. Also I find Mac more simple to use than PC and I'm a fan of PC. ALSO video editor mostly uses Mac and this include people editing photos.

Personal opinion.
Go with WINDOWS 8.
No offense if you like mac.

Why I think windows8 as its not traditional windows OS.

It is suitable as per your need and secure from internet threats as well.

With new feature like reset it is easy to fix also.

So my opinion goes with 8.

Ans not to forget soon would be having OS from google too.

So if you can wait just hold on for some more time, maybe you will be getting more surprises:-)

W8 pc because the pc is upgradable and this os is good if your pc can manage it.

Windows 8 PC is the best one.

Which Mac? Which other brand of PC? What are we supposed to be comparing?

Why not get a Mac and run Windows 8 on it when you need it?

If you like to game stick with Windows. Macs are terrible for gaming and you have to pay $2000 plus to get a mid level computer when you could get a high end gaming computer from another company. Check out xoticpc.com you can completely customize your laptop to suit your needs and they have amazing specs for gaming available. Macs are not more resilient to viruses and hackers, there just aren't that many viruses for Macs yet since they make up such a small portion of the market. In fact they are always the first to fall at Pwn2Own which is a hacking competition. As for the OS I'd personally stick with Windows 7. Windows 8 is a little to new and seems more for touch screens. I hope it's not another Vista. Anyway for what you want to do Windows computers better suit your needs.

Try macbook pro

  • Should i switch from Windows to Mac? I'm thinking of buying a Macbook, it's expensive, but at-least I enjoy the liberty of knowing I won't be catching any viruses. I heard it's faster and more stable, and can connect fluently with other apple products (have an iPhone 5). What i want to know is, what are the downsides?
  • Reset a Mac with windows keyboard? I have a Mac Mini and i have a HP keyboard and i can't fully reset my Mac because i don't have a Apple keyboard so i was wondering if i can reset my Mac using the Find My IPhone app from my IPhone and erase it from there?
  • Mac Mini Vs Windows 8 Computer? I have an old windows xp computer. It's going to die soon, I just know it. I want to get a Mac Mini, we have 2 iPads and a few iPods, and might get a few iPhones. We're well integrated with Apple. I watched the keynote and I'm excited for the continuity features. I want to get a Mac, but we might end up getting a windows pc. I like windows 8' but I prefer a Mac. What should I do?
  • Looking for a good video editing program for mac or windows that is free? I recorded a song and light show that my friend's band played and that I programed for. I took the video with my iPhone sitting on an elevated box, so it's a still shot of the whole song. I'm looking for a program that I can make the colors a bit richer, make the video a little lighter, and add some kind of filter or effect to the video to make watching the video more interesting before I upload it to social media sites.
